10:05 pm
>> reporter: the strategy really is about the battleground states, don. look at where the president has been traveling over the next several months. many trips to colorado and florida where he will be headed later in the week. a lot of time spent in virginia, and we can't forget about ohio. the president was there last friday, and he returns again after leaving from the west coast again. a lot of money and time being spent in the key battleground states. if you watch television in those states, just about every few minutes you will see one of the campaign ads from the president or from his gop opponent, mitt romney. they believe if you can hang on or win the key battleground states that's a road to victory in the upcoming election, don. >> and the president got some laughs speaking to a friendly crowd. what did he say about the debate? >> reporter: first of all the president started off by talking about foreign policy and winding down or ending the war in iraq, and winding down the war in
10:06 pm
afghanistan and the auto bailout, and he turned his focus to romney of course, and one thing that has been coming up on the road since the debate, big bird. >> when asked what to do to cut spending, he said he would go after television. don't worry, somebody is finally cracking down on big bird. cracking down on him. elmo's made a run for the border. governor romney plans to let wall street run wild again, but he is bringing the hammer down on sesame street. >> reporter: the president also poked fun at his own lack luster debate performance, and he was
10:07 pm
talking about all the list of performers, how they perform flawlessly night after night and he says that's not something he can say about himself. >> the president has more events planned in california, but all are fundraisers, right? >> reporter: the majority -- he does have one unveiling a national monument in northern california and he will do that tomorrow. but the bulk of the most important focus of the trip is about fund-raising, and $9.45 million to be exact, and this is money, again, that this campaign believes they need to be competitive in the battleground states. >> dan, thank you very much. the president's khchallenge was hard at work today, too. it's his second straight day up and down the critical swing

10:09 pm
newton is there. polls were scheduled to close hours ago, but they are still open. what is going on? >> reporter: a few are still open. if you are in any polling station anywhere in this country today you would know the lineups were huge, and it could be approaching 80%. for that reason, the electoral commission stayed true to word and continued to have the polls open. we are not sure if it will make a difference, though. we are getting word that they reached 80 to 95% of the votes are counted. >> what has energized voters so much, for people to wait in really long lines? >> reporter: traditionally venezuela has high turnouts, but beyond that, this is one of the closest and really contested elections in venezuelan history. and this young guy, 40 years old, she always compared to the
10:10 pm
david and goliath thing, and then you have chavez, and he has thrown everything at the campaign, and even the kitchen sink, and doing what he can to prove that look i brought many of the poor out of poverty, and i will continue to do that if i get another six-year-term. >> the results, we won't know, probably until overnight or longer? >> reporter: that's right. this is going on right now and we are awaiting a new announcement from the electoral commission, but most people say it will be a close election, so we will just have to wait to see how close it is, and if we can get results sooner, or if it's going to be a long night. >> yeah, interesting to see who wins and what happens if chavez doesn't. that's an interesting question. right here in the u.s., the

10:14 pm
honest, it's a night president obama probably wishes he could have had back. and many fellow democrats felt romney bent the truth in the debate but was never called out and i asked if it was the moderator that bun tkpwuled that or the president. >> i think the moderator has that job. he could have the background information to present and say, but wait a minute, this is what you said on this day. >> it's up to the president to defend himself? >> absolutely. i am not trying to say the president should not take responsibility for his awful performance, he should have. but i think the criticism to the moderator is also justified. >> go ahead, hanna. >> what the liberals are doing is post debate spinning.
10:15 pm
it's whining. there's no whining in politics. one person should have challenged what romney was saying and his name is barack obama, and he did not do it. i agree with lz. it was a bit of both. it was a lot of both. president obama was way off, and mitt romney was very much on his game. you know, i don't remember many debates where it's hard to think of a memorable gaffe or a memorable knockout blow, and yet there was a very visible mark that was an undebatable victor of the debate, and it was mitt romney. he did it because for 90 sustained minutes, it was like he was a limp piece of spaghetti. >> yeah, it was like the chair. this is honest talk. let's talk about the job numbers. it could have come at a better
10:16 pm
time, and how big of a help is this below 8% jobless rate, do you think? i want to see what the republicans think about that? mitt romney can't say the unemployment rate is above 8%? >> absolutely it was a help, and on friday, just after the debate, and let me tell you, don, i am a republican, but when it comes to unemployment numbers i am an american first, i am not on the red or blue team, and i want our economy to strengthen and i want us to recover as a country and the smartest thing any political person can do is celebrate america doing better. >> i think you are absolutely right. so why are many republicans saying these numbers were cooked when it shows you there is no interaction between the white house and the officer that decides he has numbers? >> because they're 30 days from an election, and everything is
10:17 pm
political. what they eat is political. what they wear is political. what they say is political. >> i don't think that's true. >> but at the end of the day, we're all in this together. >> i don't think that's true. >> i think they are whining -- >> we have had 27 or 28 consecutive months now are job growth. this is not a runoff. the republicans have not been really happy about job growth for, like, two years. what we saw this past week was just a microkrauz mow of what we have been seeing for the past two years. >> you guys are going to be cut off because the satellites are going down in a minute. let's show the debates between o'reilly and jon stewart. we were all saying this is great. why aren't the real debates like this. maybe it should be bill o'reilly or jon stewart moderating the debate instead of the people we had chosen, and maybe there
10:18 pm
should be more diversity or younger people, and there has been a criticism about diverse moderators. this was great. what do you think? >> don, i am all with you except about the part of jon stewart and bill o'reilly being diverse. i am not sure they fall into a diverse category. but they were entertaining, because they are entertainers. >> real quick, lz? >> a lot of the conversation was honest, which a lot of the politicians can't afford to be, sadly. television host jon stewart and bill o'reilly, faced off podium to podium, and mostly for the entertainment value, but not all for laughs.
10:19 pm
both guys spoke with substance, and a lot of people say their debate was more watchable than the real thing? >> what do you think is the fundamental problem with the political discourse? >> the problem is capitalism. that's the -- >> say it again. >> the problem with the discourse situation in america is capitalism, and listen and follow closely. you can make a lot of money by being an assassin. you go in and you are a hater, radio, cable, in print or whatever, and you get paid. and there are people that do that, and they go in, and they don't even believe half the stuff they say and they rip it up and they get paid a lot of money, and that is coursened everything. they are phonies. and capitalism drives that. there are people, americans who want to hear hate.

>> good debate, and engaging. joe biden versus paul ryan is next. the first and only vice presidential debate just days away. we preview the match-up and look at standout moments from previous vice presidential debates. >> who can forget that wink? sarah palin winking with the nominee, joe biden. not just once, but some half a dozen times. and there is lloyd benson's dig in 1988. >> i knew jack kennedy. jack kennedy was a friend of mine. senator, you are no jack kennedy. >> memorable moments, but hardly game changers. while presidential debates can affect the outcome of an election, vice presidential debates like this upcoming match-up between biden and his gop challenger, paul ryan, are a
10:21 pm
different animal. >> can you see they have hit the standard of readiness, they will be ready to be able to step into the oval office and take the reigns of the presidency. but beyond that in terms of the actual debate itself, unless there's a star-killing or star-catching moment, it rarely changes the course of the debate. >> brazil says the first rule here is to do no harm. >> in terms of substance, don't break any new ground. this is not an addition for 2016, but it's about 2012 and the top of the ticket. >> biden said that contests are never easy. >> what i have been doing mostly is quite frankly studying up on congressman ryan's positions on the issues, and governor romney has embraced, at least everything that i can see.
10:22 pm
i don't want to say anything in the debate is that not completely accurate. >> what are the biggest strengths? for ryan, it's ability to speak in tkae bail, and for biden his ease in talking about how national policies affect ordinary people. >> he is fast on the cuff. he's a witty guy. he has been doing this for 40 years. so you are not going to rattle joe biden. joe is very good on the attack. joe is very good at trying to confuse the issues. >> when it comes to advice for the candidates? >> try to be comfortable and be rested and look into the camera and smile from time to time. >> and a little humor always helps. >> i can see my wife and i think she is saying, gee, i wish you could go out into the private sect sector. >> well, i'm going to try and help you do that. >> biden and ryan get their turn to tackle the issues before the

10:46 pm
>> i think you have a responsibility to be moral, to be ethical and to be honest. i think as far as your appearance is concerned i take exception for a viewer that called it a choice for obesity. nobody chooses to be obese. this is a very complicated cocktail of biology, environment and psychology, and it's not a behavioral choice. >> let me play devil's advocate here, and you say nobody chooses to be overweight. >> or anorexic. >> many people say it's the lifestyle choices and the food choices that you make. you are very much in the public spotlight and what are your thoughts on this? >> i definitely think that you absolutely -- i agree with you, doctor, you cannot choose to be obese. you don't choose to be anorexic. it just seems to be people think you probably sit at home and eat tons of food or sit at home and don't eat anything at all and that's a choice, but it's beyond
10:47 pm
that. >> not just in the news media, and let's take chris christie as an example, a figure who has been publicly criticized about his figure and weight, and he is very overweight and he knows it and admits it and he addressed this issue time and again, and even discussing it with piers morgan. >> i struggle with my weight. i have been struggling a long time for it and i know it would be better for my kids if i got it more under control, so i feel a sense of guilt at times about that. >> okay. isn't he saying the same thing as this guy is saying, that she's not a role model for young girls, and he is saying i'm not a role model for my kids. >> it's not a role model, it's about being a pair skpupbt staying around for a long time and about health. something i want to say, i don't think there's a population that

10:53 pm
it's 51% to 45% for the pop seugs. it was not as close as people thought it might be. and we could not report it because of the phmedia restrictions right now. it's like the fourth of july out here, and the fireworks are still going. and by any measure this is a crushing defeat for the opposition. they made a house to house battle for this vote, and there were many things to complain about. hugo chavez threw everything including the kitchen sink at this election, he gave out many things, cell phones, and he has been on the nationalized campaign, and nationalized almost 1,000 businesses. many say they will see more of this and in the long run, this will end up hurting the venezuela economy more than it
